Partiendo de curiosas anécdotas, algunas jurídicas y otras no, este ensayo analiza el progreso de la protección a las obras artísticas y literarias antes de que existieran las modernas legislaciones sobre el derecho de autor. Los egipcios, griegos y romanos en la antigüedad compartían algunas ideas sobre la concepción de autoría, pero cada uno a su manera; las ideas religiosas de la edad media cambiaron la noción de “autor” y llevaron al primer “litigio” por un derecho autoral; la imprenta disparó la literatura y las monarquías de Europa inventaron las patentes y los privilegios para la comercialización de obras literarias; hasta que finalmente la Reina Ana promulgó su famoso estatuto de 1709-1710, reglamentando por primera vez el copyright; pero los franceses no se quedaron atrás, ideando su propio droit d’auteur. El ensayo concluye con un recuento de la tipificación del derecho de autor en América Latina y en el plano internacional.
